The house I live in is over 20 years. Very recently, this toilet door has been catching on the tile
floor when I opened the door nearly 3/4 of the way in. So what I'm gonna do in this video...
is show you how I fix that sagging door. There's generally 3 ways to fix a sagging door. The first is to check if the door hinge is pulled outwards, & it's no longer flush with the door
jamb. In that case, just screw in all 3 screws to pull the hinge back in. The second way is to
unscrew this top screw, & then use a long screw - say 75 mm screw. So that with the longer depth,
it's able to pull this hinge in. The third & last method involves working inside the room. Shut the
door completely. Use shims on the door opening, & at the bottom of the door - to get the door
to the correct opening allowance. And then remove this pin completely. And either bend the hinges on
the door-jamb side inwards, or bend the hinges on the door itself outwards. To start, I've put
shims under the door - just get it nice & tight. This way, when I remove the pin from the top door
hinge, the door is not gonna drop. I'm gonna use a nail punch to remove the pin from the door hinge.
The pin is out.
That's the pin. I' m gonna use a vice-grip to bend this 1, 2, 3
hinge-knuckles back towards the door-jamb.
There is not enough space for me to get the vice-grip behind it to pull it.
So instead I'm gonna use a larger nail punch.
Right, let's see if that little bit helped.
That's done! It's just that simple. Tiny little shift in the door hinge inwards. It's probably just a
millimeter shift, & that's taken the bottom of the door up away from the tile. So it's fixed
Just hammer this in a bit more.
And next time, give it a coat of paint. I hope you enjoyed this video & found it helpful.
How to do a simple fix. I'd rather fix it from the hinge-knuckles - which is solving the actual problem
than do the first 2 simple methods. Hope you enjoyed this video. Do hit the LIKE button &
